Chapter 170: Gambling is Illegal
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although Zhang Bo did not have Su Xun as a friend, he added Tang An as a friend at the birthday banquet yesterday.
Tang An and Su Xun had been friends for more than ten years. As long as Tang An saw it, he would definitely tell Su Xun. If Tang An didn’t tell Su Xun about this post, then it was something he should consider. This would have nothing to do with him.
However, he forgot that other than Tang An, there were other people who could see this post.
For example, when Ling Feng saw this photo, he was shocked. Xi Wan was playing cards at the bar?
When Lu Ting saw this photo, he looked at Lu Zhou who was in the photo and muttered to himself, “So, she is playing cards with Xi Wan at the bar?”
Meanwhile, Xi Wan had already drawn her cards and called the landlord.
She said, “It’s not interesting to just play cards. We have to bet something.
Someone immediately suggested, “Sister Xi, let’s bet on Top Actor Xiao’s car then? He had just bought that car a while ago. It cost a few million!”
This was a common method to pick up girls. By using an excuse as a pretext to give something out, both parties would be happy. Perhaps it could even create an opportunity for them to meet in the future.
However, Xi Wan said, “A car worth a few million? Do you guys usually bet this
The rest of the people were speechless.
Was a car considered a big deal?
Looking at the bracelet on Xi Wan’s hand, a small bracelet would probably cost hundreds of thousands, right?
When Xi Wan saw that the group of people did not say anything, she explained, “It’s illegal to gather a crowd to gamble.”
The rest of the people started brainstorming again.
Zhang Bo was frantically searching on his cell phone in a corner. Was playing Landlord between friends considered gambling? How could it be considered gambling? How much money constitutes gambling?
When he saw that one of the criteria was that there were more than three people, he was relieved.
This was great. Only three people could play Fight the Landlord.
Xiao Zhe’s cold sweat was about to drip down. He gritted his teeth and said, “Gambling is for profit but we’re playing cards between friends. We’re just trying to get a chance. Moreover, with our income as the benchmark, this is not considered gambling at all.”
Xi Wan had a look of realization and said, “As expected of Top Actor Xiaom you really understand gambling quite well.’
Xiao Zhe was speechless. The person who had suggested it at the beginning was also sweating profusely. He said, “Sister Xi, I don’t mean anything else. We used to play like this when we were playing cards so we’re used to it. It’s just to get a good chance.”
“I see.” Xi Wan looked at her cards carefully and felt that they were not bad, so she casually said, “Let’s play for eight dollars for each hand then.”
Eight dollars, this number was quite unfamiliar to anyone’s ears.
Xiao Zhe’s face darkened as he said, “This amount is definitely not enough to gamble.”
Meanwhile, Zhang Bo was still checking if a game of cards that cost eight dollars per round counted as gambling.
The system was laughing so hard that it was about to twitch. [Hahaha! Was the second male protagonist going to break down now?]
Xi Wan: “Everyone has a responsibility to build a society ruled by law.”
[But it’s really too funny! Hahaha!]
As time passed, Xiao Zhe, who was the host, had yet to win.
He had never felt that playing cards was so difficult.
If the prize was a car, he might have given it to her as if he was trying to please her. However, it was eight dollars, as if it was precisely calculating how much he had lost.
Moreover, up until now, Xi Wan had been winning and Xiao Zhe was embarrassed.
Zhang Bo, who was playing cards with them, was keenly aware of the change in Xiao Zhe’s mood. In the next round, he immediately called the Landlord first so that Xiao Zhe could be on the same team as Xi Wan.
Under Xi Wan’s lead, Xiao Zhe finally obtained his first victory. After the game ended, Xiao Zhe looked at his income and expenditure. He had only won eight dollars.
Forget it, he was even more embarrassed now.
“Sister Xi is amazing!” Zhang Bo praised Xi Wan and tried to flatter her.
Xi Wan said, “You’re flattering me, it was purely luck.”
The system could not help but laugh. [Since the second male protagonist was born, he has never done such a thankless project! Wait, you passed the mission? Why?]
Xi Wan said, “Maybe someone’s heartbroken? How boring. His mental endurance is too weak.”
The system replied: [I asked you to act heartbroken, but you beat someone until he has a mental breakdown in a game of cards! Offending the second male protagonist won’t do you any good!]
Xi Wan said, “You should be more confident. I won’t gain anything by pleasing him.’
The system was speechless. [It’s pointless to teach someone who doesn’t have aptitude..]
